NEW YORK - Tucker Carlson, a popular host of FOX News Channel’s primetime show "Tucker Carlson Tonight," is leaving the cable news network.
"FOX News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways," the network wrote in a statement on Monday. "We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor."
The network said "Fox News Tonight" will air live at 8 p.m. ET starting on Monday as an interim show "helmed by rotating FOX News personalities until a new host is named."
Just last Friday, Tucker seemed to have taken jabs at Fox and other hosts on the network calling them shills and cowards.
